Mona
Singh has a way with reality shows. After winning the first season of
Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, she went on to win three more reality shows. Now,
after all her success, she has decided that hosting reality shows is a
lot more fun and a lot less stress. Till date, she has 11 such shows to
her credit. In a candid interview, she speaks of her love for being in
front of the camera, Jhalak's current season and future plans.

How does it feel being back on Jhalak?Nervous.
(laughs). I'm always nervous in front of the camera. This time, though,
I am more confident compared to the last, as it was my break as an
anchor._____________

What's the best bit about this show?I
can see and interact with Madhuri Dixit up close. We're all Madhuri
fans. It feels great to share screen space with her. Also this season is
the best one so far.

_______________

What's better: hosting, judging or participating?I
don't want to participate in anymore reality shows. I've won three of
them. Hosting is fun and it brings out the funny aspect of the show.
Participating is a lot more hard work, while judging is sitting and
enjoying what others are doing.

_____________

Any favourites this season?Each
of the participants is talented. You can't say who will win because
each of the participants is getting better by the episode. Sushant Singh
Rajput and Yana Gupta stand out because they are trained dancers.

This
Romantic melody by Shreya Ghosha and Sona Mahapatral, from 'I Hate Love
Stories' is picturised on Sonam Kapoor and Imran Khan. The song is very
romantic and expressive and a soulful composition by Vishal-Shekhar

One
more romantic composition by Pritam 'Tum Jo Aaye' from 'Once Upon Time
In Mumbai' sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Tulsi Kumar became huge
craze last year. The song has elements of qawwali that strikes a chord
with the listener.

This
romantic song is from Priyanka Chopra and Shahid Kapoor starrer
'Kaminey'. It's sung by Suresh Wadkar. 'Kaminey' was their first film
together and the onscreen couple fell in love in real life after this
film.

This
is a very beautiful and famous romantic song from Action Replayy. It
has retro throwback to the 70s. It was picturised on Ash amid flowery
meadows and atop snowy mountains. A romantic ballad by Shreya Ghoshal!

This
romantic song has been sung by Mohit Chauhan and Antara Mitra. Its
lyrics are very poetic. Katrina Kaif and Ranbir look great with each
other in this song.

Yet
another romantic song from Pritam. This beautiful romantic song from De
Dana Dan, starring Akshay, Katrina, Sunil Shetty and Sameera Reddy is
one of the romantic best songs of recent times. Akshay and Katrina looks
perfect onscreen couple.

Pakistani
Singer Atif Aslam yet again proved his prowess with the song in the
recently released film "Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani". One of the most
romantic songs of the year, the duet also had Alisha Chinoi behind the
mike. It's a beautiful, soothing love ballad that pulls on your
heartstrings. A wonderful composition by Pritam!

'Sajda'
song from My Name is Khan has been sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. This
beautiful song features one of the best couples in the industry Shah
Rukh Khan and Kajol. It's a beautiful song which has some sufi touch to
it.

This
lovely duet is sung by Shreya Ghoshal & Sonu Nigam. This is one of
the best romantic songs last year featuring beautiful Sonakshi Sinha and
Salman Khan that showcases the romantic moments between a couple.

It's
a melodious, soft love ballad by Mohit Chauhan. The song has touches of
Sufi. Picturised on Emraan Hashmi and Prachi Desai 'Pee Loon' is
undoubtedly one of the most romantic number of 2010.

DE-STRESS MANTRA

'I vent all my anger and stress by playing videogames'

...says television actor Karan Wahi, who believes in work-life balance

My
personal de-stress mantra is to play to video games. My gaming console
is my best de-stress buddy as I vent all my anger and stress by playing
videogames especially the hardcore fighting games.

I love to
play soccer and cricket. I also enjoy playing indoor games like pool. I
can also play musical instruments like drums and the guitar. Until three
months ago, I never really used to get the time to watch movies. But
now I have the advantage of having a home, which I have created in
style, so that I have all the luxuries and comforts. I just love to
watch movies on my home theatre system. These days, I have been catching
up on television series at nights. In fact, I spend five to six hours
at night catching up on series and find myself going to bed around four
in the morning.

I'm a huge foodie and in fact I can eat anything
and everything that is edible. You name it, and I can eat it, including
cockroaches. But for some reason, I cannot eat fish as I am allergic to
it.

I'm not a party person anymore as I have done it so much in
the past that I have now grown out of it. I love staying at home and
whenever I get a chance I like having my friends over at home to chillout. If I'm going
out, I'd rather go to a lounge and sit down with my friends and chat
for a while with good music playing in the background instead of a club
where music is blasting your eardrums.

Every individual has a
different routine and once in a while it's good to take a break from it.
For example, when I am shooting for 12 hours a day, it takes away my
whole day and by the time I get back home, its usuallyquite late.
Therefore, I like to catch up with my friends and do something
different, at least for that one day in a week. If one doesn't take a
break and get out of one's routine, then frustration and irritation
catch up. To stay fresh definitely the way to de-stress.

What
I'd like to advise is make sure you take out time from your busy
schedule for yourself and do whatever you like. De-stressing can be
anything — swimming, clubbing, watching TV, video games, gymming, etc.
It's important to have a balanced life because we are living in a world
that is too competitive and materialistic. At times, we have to stop
running behind money and power and instead just relax and enjoy life!
